A color photographic slide of activist Phil Wilson standing in front of a podium, speaking into a microphone. He is wearing a brown jacket, with a beige spotted sweater and a white shirt underneath it. On his right lapel is a circular button with a black stripe in the middle of it. The word [UNITY] is printed in white outline within the stripe. The top semi-circle is red, with the words [Million Man March] printed in black ink, while the bottom semi-circle is green with the words [Washington DC. 1995] written in black ink. On his left lapel is a pin or sticker of the African continent in rainbow stripes. Behind Wilson is a black banner with the words [National Gay & Lesbian Leadership]. An individual in red jacket holding the banner is just visible in the left edge of the image, with green leaves of trees barely visible at the top right corner.
